PulseAudio is the audio output for Ubuntu. If you use something else,
you are on your own. Indeed, distorsion is one of several reason to
avoid ALSA (except through PulseAudio, that is). And even with ALSA,
100% is in fact an arbitrary level at least for floating point output
(which is most frequent in VLC). VLC cannot know what the ALSA plugins
do, and many ALSA users set soft mixing up.
Anyway, there *is* an option to limit the volume slider to 100% in VLC
2.1 already.
** Changed in: vlc (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Fix Released
